I feel a little bit jipped. I knew this was coming and I could have shelled out for Silver Membership. My kids play sport on Sat morning and I play on Sat arvo. No time to go to the footy on Saturdays. A Silver Membership is really $$$ down the drain because at best I will make 2 games. I just cant justify paying for 11 games when I know from the outset I will be lucky to make 2. last year I made just one Fri night game. So far this year just the Wiz Cup GF. Each year however I buy the Blue Membership just to stay faithful.
If every 'supporter' out there with commitments on a Saturday bought a Blue membership the club would be rolling in cash!! It would have been nice if, apart from the lapel pin, magazine and fridge magnet the club had offered Blue members an opportunity to get any left over tickets for the OO game prior to the general public getting a shot at them. On that topic it would be a good idea if the club maybe offered a discount ticket/priority booking number or something for Blue members to buy tickets for the 1 or 2 games that they can make. In reality guys I dont really care too much about the lapel pin, fridge magnet etc. Last years are probably still in the packet. Ii'm stumping up for the Blue Membership to buy a feeling that I am part of the club. If you gave people with weekend commitments a meaningful avenue to feel like they belong, you would probably convert more supporters into members.
That's good feedback 2ndeffort, you should shoot that off to the club
membership@carltonfc.com.au ... who knows, it may get disregarded, or they may take your comments on board.
I sent a few annual emails to the club along a similar line about providing a more attractive package for people living in regional Vic and interstate. The $95 deal they have now isn't perfect, but its a start, and I do believe that the club is hamstrung by what it can offer in some instances due to AFL restrictions, but I guess there's no surprises there.
Anyway, all feedback to the club is good feedback as far as I am concerned, and I reckon you should be poroud as punch to be a member every year as it is. Good on you.

. I wanted legends upper when I was booking but it has worked out well as it is easier to be a yahoo in the terraces plus there is a good chance there will be some vision of me in the final game at OO. Great work me. I was actually amazed that the Canberra staff had some vague idea on what to do.
